    Backup camera kit

    Looking at the site, it shows this kit https://www.allmoparparts.com/sku/82214240ac.html being on backorder. Is this an indefinite backorder, or something you expect to have in stock again soon? I just spent 3 weeks arguing with an eBay seller about the availability and am now waiting for them...

    Odd noise coming from cold engine.

    Pulled the belt off and checked everything I had replaced so far, all seems good. Had the wife hold it around 2500-3000 and checked the valve covers with a giant screwdriver, went from the top and the side through the wheel well. No noise that stood out. Went and picked up a new alternator and...

    Odd noise coming from cold engine.

    That almost sounds similar, but it's directly relative to the engine rpm and goes away as it warms up.

    Odd noise coming from cold engine.

    Trying to get my wife to understand holding RPM while I use a giant screwdriver to probe around hasnt been very successful so far lol. Just trying to rule out a warped exhaust heat shield or something stupid. Debating picking up a new alternator to rule that out, but its making really no noise...

    Odd noise coming from cold engine.

    I can hear a less aggressive version of it revving it in N in the driveway, and its only that severe on an overnight cold start. It isnt anywhere near as apparent after its been ran for a bit, but because i know what im listening for, i hear it very lightly still.

Replaced idler and tensioner over summer, just did water pump last weekend thinking that was the cause of the noise, however it is still there. It sounds like a bad bearing, but the noise...

    Just Ordered Ram Classic in Robin Egg Blue - Questions!

    I was in the staging lots last winter, and they definitely had a good number of fleet trucks in Robin Egg Blue. You should be fine.

    SVC 4WD message

    Have a look at the plug that goes into the actuator on the front axle. Took my truck in and they told me the plug end needed to be replaced. A little dielectric and some in out action on the plug and it was good to go. My assumption is that they didn't put any in there after replacing my actuator.

    Experience with 5.7 2500?

    Yeah... I towed my Jeep(4300lbs) on a tandem axle trailer(1900lbs) 6200lbs total in my 5.7 1500 with the 8 speed and 3.21 gears, and aside from getting on the highway, it handled beautifully.
